The Project Settings command allows you to set various options that govern the current project. If no project is currently open, then the Project Settings command allows you to set the default options inherited by subsequently created projects.
When you create a new project, the Project Settings dialog box appears.
You may specify whether the project has its own private configuration, or if it uses the global configuration file. You can also indicate where the project’s source directory is, and what types of symbol information should be indexed.
